The Royal Melbourne Hospital's Department of Anaesthesia and Pain Management runs courses throughout the year for health professionals.
The department provides expertise in airway management, resuscitation and trauma management. Courses are hosted in airway and bronchoscopic training, and advanced life support training at the Royal Melbourne Hospital.
Our courses
The ALS2 course is conducted by Melbourne Clinical Simulation Centre at the Royal Melbourne Hospital.
The Advanced Life Support (ALS2) provider certificate is valid for 4 years from the date you undertook the two-day course. This date can be found on your blue ALS certificate card.
Returning to work can be a big challenge, with the period of leave often resulting in reduced confidence levels and feelings of inadequacy in performing tasks that were previously straightforward.
This is the first, largest and longest running national airway course designed specifically for trainees involved in airway management, open to all anaesthetic trainees, ICU trainees, ED trainees and residents in anaesthesia, ICU and ED.
The Skills Training for Anaesthetic Residents (STAR) course is designed for junior anaesthetic trainees and residents entering the anaesthetic training program.
